Who the fuck is Ricky The Steamboat Dragon?

A PBS Kids series focusing on Ricky the (Little) Steamboat Dragon who goes on adventures to discover life's lessons. Joining him on his Magical Steamboat Ride are his friends Greg the Valentine Hammer (a talking hammer, with little hearts all over him, who's quite crafty) and Don the Muraco Rock (a lovable talking rock who loves to surf).

Say what you will about Don West's lack of wrestling knowledge, at least in the early days, but man does the dude know how to sell something. Unfortunately his excitement lead to an excellent name calling blunder. Who the fuck is Ricky The Steamboat Dragon?

To this day, when watching any sport and I see a team is down beyond the point of no return, I will stand up and yell "GO RED GO!" over and over. Just... because.
yeah, i'm alive.

I wish they didn't have those budget cuts early on. The Ricky Steamboat heel turn was super interesting and to this day I still wonder how it would have played out long term.

It was all Goldylocks' fault... she compared him to Bill Behrens. That would've made me turn heel, too.

And week #8 finally brings out my hatred for Red and The Maximos. It's a crappy spotfest masked as a 6-Man Tag where the referee just stands around with his hands in his pockets. The heel of the match (Siaki) is put in a 3-on-1 situation because of his arrogant persona (Refusing to tag Yang or Estrada) and gets the babyface heat treatment, and then it's just a total clusterfuck.

If any of that made sense, thank you, because it still doesn't, and I just typed it!

Here's the sneak peak at what Week #8 has to offer. a DWB EXCLUSIVE!

- Disco Inferno is back for more Jive Talkin'. Why does he have a chalkboard? Is this Dean Douglas' classroom? The Dupps show up... and if I could express a loud groan through text, I would. Ugh. It just doesn't do it justice. They come out with a spitoon and a horsey head on a stick. I guess Fluff Dupp is no longer on the payroll. Because of Ricky Steamboat telling them to do whatever they want, they introduce the first ever DUPP CUP INVITATIONAL, a.k.a the "Hardcore Division" of NWA-TNA. In the first of many, many, MANY examples of over-complicating things... well, here's a picture for you:

(And that's just half of it)

Even though I am going to copy the text for this from another source, I actually sat through this entire bullcrap segment, and have one thing to say: I feel bad for Disco Inferno. He tries to make sense of everything, and be entertaining, but this thing is just DOA. Anyway, here's how it works...

- To win, you need to score 10 points. You score points by performing the following...

1. Putting someone through a table is worth 2 1/2 points. Putting someone through a burning table is worth 5 points
2. Sticking your opponent's head in the toilet is worth 2 1/2 points. 3 1/2 points of the toilet has shit in it.
3. Goosing a woman is worth 2 1/2 points, goosing a man is worth 3 1/2 points.
4. Hitting "That Kermit The Frog Guy" Jeremy Borash or Sara The Ticket Lady is worth 2 1/2 points.
5. Using a farm animal is worth 2 1/2 points. Don't ask.
6. Spaking your opponent with the stick Horse is worth 2 1/2 points, but if the person likes it, you lose 2 1/2 points.
7. Introducing your opponent to Jay is worth 2 1/2 points. Don't ask.
8. Crying like a PUSSY is a loss of 5 points.
9. Sticking your opponent's head in the Cotton Candy Machine for a full rotation is worth a full 10 points and automatically wins the match.
10. Disco Inferno's suggestion: Points for using a weapon handed to you by a fan. He suggested 5 points, but Stan Dupp says it's worth 1 point.



I feel much dumber now suffering through this. I still haven't seen the first match! It's Ed Ferrara vs. I don't even care which Dupp anymore. My soul is crushed.

Sometimes budget cuts are a good thing, but they brought the concept back in 2003 with guys like New Jack in some kind of weird Tournament. At least then it didn't have the stink of the Dupps attached to it.

That wasn't terrible. Wasn't good but it wasn't terrible.

Watching old 1993 ECW. Don Muraco just beat surfer Sandman for the ECW Title. Terry Funk vs. Eddie Gilbert is the only reason to watch this stuff.

One thing I loved about that era is they would literally give anyone a shot and even push them a bit if the crowds took to them.

TNA always had problems, but when I got hooked into TNA, I actually enjoyed that the better wrestlers were usually the Champs. Yes, you had the Harris Twins hanging around, but they were mostly used as fodder to guys like AMW, or Sonny Siaki, who wasn't exactly great in the ring, was at least an attempt at creating a new star. Raw got so bad in at the end of 2002 I actually bought ever TNA PPV for over 4 months, and thought Raven vs. Jarrett was the most important match in wrestling. And then Jarrett won in the biggest clusterfuck known to man. That's the power of being hooked to a product, and how quickly it can go away.

It seems like every week it's a battle between The Dupps and Bruce for "worst angle forced on the audience." Dupp Cup(p) or Bruce as Miss TNA, wearing a flesh colored thong? It's like deciding between a kick in the teeth or a broom handle up the butt.

After all my bitching about Week #8, Low Ki, AJ Styles, and Jerry Lynn have one of the best triple threat matches I've ever seen.

What week was the first Ultimate X match? I'd like to try to track that one down, see if it holds up.
